[QUOTE="Empirate, post: 7441111, member: 78958"] In my campaign, Ottavia actually killed one of the PCs, who came up with the questionable plan of scaling the tower's outside with the help of some buoyant balloons – she popped them with a Sound Burst once he was close to the top, and he was already low on HP... Nevertheless, the other PCs captured Ottavia instead of killing her outright, and got her story out of her. They were finally convinced that she had no evil intentions and was just (extremely) misguided. She was duly horrified by Luc's using the lantern to lay the Nem trap (which not only got some PCs trapped in Nem, but also some innocents, which were rescued by the PCs in the nick of time), so she offered to trap the PCs on Odiem: she had resolved to move him with a show of self-sacrificing love, hoping to trigger his better instincts, because she really believes Luc is, or has the potential to be, a great man. Didn't work, and she only survived her dual failure (not stopping the PCs, and not getting through Luc's sociopathic tendencies) because the PCs decided to show her mercy. She supported them in the Crypta Hereticarum (which I expanded upon quite a bit), and ended up given a new identity to live under in Risur. The dead PC was revived by Ashuma Shimtu, btw. One day, his life debt will come due... [/QUOTE]
